Thanks. Could use better communications explaining each step but overall quite useful. I suggest a better sequence. Start by explaining what tools ate needed and slowly walking through each task. Thanks for taking your time to help others.

@joegolf68: Thanks for the feedback. Had I wanted to do this in a more professional manner, I could have done that but this was rather spur of the moment, "Hey, I'm going to go ahead and record this real fast while I'm doing it." I'll keep it in mind for future topics though. :)

my dad told me its actually not a good idea to turn the motor over (in cars) to get the last bit of oil out of the oil pump... one, there's not very much, and two, you never want it to be stuck spinning in air not pumping oil- otherwise, great video - paid $500 for my rebel

It's never a good idea to fire the engine up without any oil in the engine.

Dude, if you turn the red switch above the starter botton to the off position you can then turn the key switch on and push the starter button to turn the engine without making it run. This will help get all the oil out of the engine. Don't crank it very long, just a few turns.

Good video except the starter:

Turn ignition to ON position with Engine Cutoff switch in Engine OFF position, and push the starter to crank some more oil out.

You don't just press starter button, but you need to press it while keys are in bike BUT you must activate kill-switch so bike won't start.Aim is to make pistons turn couple cycles, by using alternator so engine can pump all the oil stuck inside of an engine block.

Your supposed to crank the engine a few times, NOT hit the starter without the key on, this will get the oil trapped on the cyclinder walls into the pan. So turn the key on kill switch off and hit the starter button a few times,

Want to do the easiest oil change EVER? Want a bike that needs NO valve adjustments, ever? Or a bike that needs nothing for 50K miles and would smoke ANY new 250 4 stroke? Get a 1980 Suzuki GT 250 or Yamaha RD 250, they will hit over 100 mph, get 55 mpg and run low 15's in the 1/4 mile. Only on a 2 stroke street bike.

Good

LoL! Pushing the start button without the key isn't going to do shit. LMAO! Hit the kill switch, turn the key and then turn it over a few times......
